American toad watching for ants

Sandy saw this large toad waiting for ants. You can see a winged ant coming out of the hole. Sandy told me about the toad and when I went past the spot, sure enough he was sitting there, though not as intent on food as in this shot. The next day, he was there again.

This is a very interesting photo indeed. What a clever toad! It's neat to see a toad doing something other than nothing, which they seem to be experts at doing!

He knows a good food larder when he finds it. I wonder how many ants a toad would have to eat every day to keep his hunger satisfied. Interesting observation and photo.
